The linear-gradient works for me. See:

I think that Firefox prefers this format:

Firefox will use -webkit prefixed properties if it doesn't find a preferred form (such as unprefixed or -moz prefixed) -- unless the user had turned that off in about:config, which is unlikely.

What version of Firefox are you testing in? The rule works in Firefox 59 (Nightly test release). (Screenshot attached.) However, there has been ongoing work with multiprocess and form controls over the past year so it could be different in other versions.

I misunderstood. When you said the style was not working, I thought the problem was the appearance.

This came up before but I can't find the thread.

(1) Does not work in Firefox -- the click does not activate the link

<button><a href="https://support.mozilla.org/" target="_blank">Support</a></button>

(2) Works in Firefox

<a href="https://support.mozilla.org/" target="_blank"><button>Support</button></a>

It appears that button takes the click event, so when the link is inside the button, it never receives the click. Have a play:

P.S. Not a new issue. January 2012: html - Button link doesn't work in Firefox, IE - Stack Overflow
